Rebecca (Kevin's Note) These childen are probably not the children of John & Rebecca, but the children of a brother of John. Rebecca Everingham-Wadley, daughter of John listed above is noted as great-neice of this couple.

Speculation;
The privateer from Charleston SC was John Everingham b. 1756? . He made major land purchases in 1794 in Charleston SC. He probably had a Will made out in 1815 and died 1-21-1831 in Charleston SC. He was married to Rebecca (also d. Dec 1849).

further research of Kevin Everingham, "these are index records only" I have not seen each actual CENSUS.1800 CENSUS Charleston, South carolina (page 152)... John Everingham
1810 CENSUS Charleston, Charleston, South Carolina (Page 298, Line# 660) ... John Everingham.
1820 CENSUS Charleston, Charleston, SC (Page 29)... John Everingham
1830 CENSUS Charleston, Ward 3, Charleston, SC (page 41) ... John Everingham
1840 CENSUS Charleston, Charleston, SC (page 62) ... Rebecca Everingham.
1850 NO Everinghams listed in South Carolina. (John & Rebecca had died, and I believe that the rest of the family may have been living in Georgia by 1850. "possibly near other Everingham relatives" X)

1796 Philadelphia daily advertiser Gazette, Sept. 15, 1796.. "Yesterday arrived the ship South Carolina, John Garman, Commander. In South Carolina, came the following passengers... Mr. Everingham." this is likely John Everingham who had purchased land in Charleston, South Carolina 2 years prior and lived the rest of his life (see Census data above).

More family notes: From the book; Georgia Quilts, U of Georgia Press, 2006 - "The earliest documented quilt that is believed to be made by an African American dates from the first quarter of the nineteenth century. It is an expertly made Broderic Perse chintz applique quilt, carefully sewn to the reverse is... this quilt was made by an African woman. Brought from a ship in Charleston harbor by John Everingham, this naked savage was trained to be a fine seamstress and waiting maid by his wife Rebecca. She gave the quilt to her great-neice, Rebecca Wadley who gave it to her daughter Tracy Wadley in 1905." - Since Rebecca Wadley is described as a (Neice) instead of grandchild, it likely means that John listed as a child above is actually a child of Thomas or the child of another brother of John (b.~1756).

1810 Case of the schooner Doris, tried in the vice-Admiralty Court of Sierra Leone, March 7, 1810... summary"Isaac Murphy's testimony - when the schooner was boarded by a vessel of war; he believed the said master, Miller, to have been appointed to his situation by a Mr. Everingham of Charlestown, the sole owner, as he had reason to believe, of the captured schooner. He further deposed that this Mr. Everingham, a merchant residing with his wife and family in Charlestown, was generally known to be the owner of the schooner, and that he believed that no other person than Everingham had an interest either in the vessel or cargo."

1813 Cases argued and determined in the Circuit Courts of the U.S. Vol.1, Albert J. Brunner, 1884 (742pgs)... "(case of the seizure of the ship (Matilda) N. Carolina, 1813 "...The President's commission to the (private armed ship - General Armstrong) is in the usual form, and of date, the 23rd November, 1812.

1814 from "Sailing Ships of the British Navy"... "On 31 October 1814, while escorting a merchantman to Jamaica, Price nearly succeeded in capturing an American privateer schooner Saucy Jack, but her superior speed enabled her to escape after receiving a couple of broadsides." I believe the New York article below is discussing the action recorded here. The book entry above discusses killing 8 Americans and injuring 15.

1814 The Argus Press, Albany N.Y, November 1814... "Saucy Jack's Cruize.. Arrived yesterday, at this port the fine fast sailing privateer schooner Saucy Jack, John P.

The probable value of the goods brought in is said to be between seventy and eighty thousand dollars. The Saucy Jack has also brought in twenty prisoners, and paroled three times that number during her cruize."
